If God is your co-pilot, you need to swap seats.

Thanks Guys!

Thanks demon, we did order a new/ shorter spreader bar cable, will see if that sorts the problem. By looking at your wing in flight we also short 2 nifty winglets.....shit, where can I order those :lol:

Hi Guys

Is that a Windlass or an Aqilla? I see it has the Aquilla double seats.

Is it possible to put the Aquilla double seats onto a windlass?

I want to change my windlass combined seat to the double aquilla type, but I have heard that the space on the back seat becomes quite small.
Whats the back seat look like on your(spacewise)?

Can't say, have'nt tried the back seat yet. I have 6m legs even battle to get in the front seat :lol::lol: But it looks pritty much standard comparing to the Aquilla.
